BV Overlook Camp & Lodging

Amazing views, friendly staff. We loved our time here and will definitely return. Restrooms and showers were really nice and clean. There's a store for any supplies or souvenirs you may need. Our site had water and electric, and there's a dump station. Close to town, and to hiking trails. Loved it here.

My husband booked beds for us in the bunkhouse for myself and 2 girl scouts who were doing a raft trip. We were mostly looking for a place to sleep and not have it be too expensive and this was perfect. They also have RV hook ups, tent sites, tiny homes, cabins and yurts available. The area was very beautiful. The restrooms have a code on them but there is also showers available, a rec room, hiking trail. We didn't really get a lot of time to explore as we were only there for an evening but we enjoyed our time there and i will be back in teh future.

Clean and private showers. Recreation room with tv, games, billiards, etc. Washer and dryer but only one and kind of expensive. Not a super close walk from tent site to bathrooms but not bad. Overall, amazing campsite!

Great experience. I rented a small cabin. The heater. Unit had a small electric radiant heater. Took a bit to warm the room up but got it pretty decently toasty on nights which got into the 20s. Check in and out was easy. Complementary coffee. I was never around when the coffee shop was open so I can't comment there. Great views.Overall a very positive experience and wouldn't hesitate to return some day

Formerly the BV KOA the new owners have made many improvements to the campground and especially to the common areas. The office building has brand new bathrooms, a pool table/TV room, large outdoor patio with a gas fire pit and plenty of seating and even includes a free dog wash station. The setting is spectacular with dead on view of Mt. Princeton. There is also a short trail that leads to the Chaffee County train network which goes for miles in all directions but includes a direct path to downtown Buena Vista (5 miles hike or mtn. bike).

Entire property is well taken care of. Helpful staff, and padded amenities.Incredible views on either side of the day. Out-of-state road warriors are welcome here. If it's a pit stop or a quick staycation, the BV overlook is easy and well worth it.

The view is nice but that's about it. They really pack in the sites, the "premium" tent site we got is right next to another, with no barrier at all. Our neighbors arrived late after my family was trying to sleep with lots of noise and lights, it would have been fine with some space between sites but not the way these are built. Also our entire site was slopped, I've never had a tent site with such a bad place to put a tent. The bathrooms (we tried several) were moderately to very dirty. Plumbing fixtures broken or loose, and very low water pressure with no hot water left. Too many people for the facilities, with lines of people outside the bathroom that keep knocking on the door the whole time you're taking a shower...You should probably camp anywhere else.

We got our favorite campsite- thank you!The shower near the office does not have hot water. The shower up the hill doesn't have much water pressure and runs out of hot water to cold quickly.Why do you not have hummingbird feeders like the previous owners?

Such a great campground! We stayed at the yurt which was amazing with both AC and heating, and also a campsite. Both were a great amount of space and very pretty. Amenities are clean, staff is friendly, and close to Buena Vista. Would recommend!

This campground is an absolute dump run by dishonest crooks. We stayed here in October on a night that it got below freezing and snowed. We were put in a cabin that had a 2-inch gap between the bottom of the door and threshold. The heater was more like a hair dryer and didn't warm the cabin. It was 40 degrees in the cabin so we didn't sleep. The floor crunched while walking on it and the platform bed was metal. When we got off the bed there was a loud bang. When we tried to get a refund from the owners she blamed us and said the problem was we didn't understand rustic cabins. We have stayed in rustic cabins in the cold months for 10 years and never experienced this. There are many places in Buena Vista...take your business elsewhere.
